    Yet more Startrite SDX310 planer problems!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    One other thing I have thought of. Once the board gets 12 inches or so past the cutter you should concentrate your efforts on the out feed table. A lot of people push through on the infeed table. That is incorrect. it actually should be "pushed and pulled" through on the outfeed table

    Yet more Startrite SDX310 planer problems!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
